undergo"an operation for the removal
of adenoids In order that he might
theroby he Intellectually and morally
Improved, has created considerable
speculation In the ranks of sociological
enthusiasts. While It Is not definitely
assured that this operation, which is
quite simple, will accomplish In the
patient the result desired, It Is at
least certain to relieve him of much
physical distress, as well as the irrita
bility of temper that Is so often-one of
the unlovely accompaniments of those
dlsugreeablo humors.
Adenoids are enlarged poBt nasal or
pharyngeal tonsils. Evidences of their
presence are frequently, though not
necessarily, breathing through the
mouth and a pufflness of the cheeks,
fn those who manifest the most
mnrkcd physical evidence of tholr
presence the nose Is broad and low. It
does not follow that adenoids produce
Intellectual and moral deficiencies, but
It Is true that there Is a probability of
such pathological tendencies. The
commonest tendency, however, Is to
lassltudo, Indifference to surroundings
and stupidity. That Individual cases
may bo found In which the growth Is
diroctly responsible for .criminality is
freely acknowledged by physicians.
Looks for Good Results.
In spoaklng of the operation re
ferred ,lo a prominent Philadelphia
practitioner gave expression tq the
above facts and ampllflod them by say
ing: “There Is no positive assurance
that the removal of adenoids In one of
criminal tendencies will effect a moral
euro. Vlelousnoss may result from
tholr presence, but so many other
thlngB are to be taken into considera
tion that it Is practically Impossible to
lay down a dictum to cover the sub
ject. I do not believe that there Is
uuy reason to look for hotter success
In the romoval of adenoids, as far as
montal and moral regeneration Is con
cerned, thnn that which repaid the fa
mous surgeon who, believing that If
the prossure upon the brain could be
roducod Idiocy would be stricken from
the list of human miseries, success
fully sawed the skull Into two longitu
dinal sections, and, finding the result
to bo what he desired, performed the
snino operation on nineteen others, all
of which operations were failures. His
notion waB that if the brain Is given
room nil Idiots will become rational.
What was true in <ne Individual code,
you bco, was not true In the other
ensos. The same holds good In rela
tion t6 ndenolds.”
The doctor was asked If there are
likely I o bo as lnneilcial results from
this operation ns It Is claimed will fol
low the correction of visual defects.
“More, I should say, most decidedly,”
he replied.’ "The results are more
likely lo be corrective of evil In the
former Instance than the latter, in
which I take very little stools. If the
child afflicted with ndenolds is crim
inal tn morals It will not be any risk
to remove the growth and If the result
Is not favorable the physical benefits
are nt toast of some value. The Incon
venience and suffering removed In nn
aggravated case might and probably
would result In Intellectual Improve
ment, and this, In turn, might Influ
ence the morals. As a panacea for
viciousness, however, au operation
cannot be a guarantee. Still, the bene
fits arc so desirable that It Is advisable
to have the adenoids removed If n
surgeon decides In favor of their re
moval. Obviously, cases will present
thomsclves that make It necessary to
remove them, but there are thousands
who have had ndenolds and never
knew of their presence. They atrophy
without having caused any annoyance.
"On the whole, I should *Bay there is
no recognized relation between ade
noids nnd criminality and consequent
ly It has not been determined that
there will be any lessening of the
number of vicious children by remov
ing the objectlonnble growths,”

From Saturday Evening Post.
Let the stodgy statesmen, who think
In cubes and talk In rectangles, tell it
that a sense of humor Is a fatal Im
pediment to a career In congress.
"Get a reputation as a humorist," th'qy
say, "and you will never amount to
anything.”
That may be true; but the stodgy
statesmen nev.er seem to think how
little they amount to themselves. They
exclaim against a story as an Illustra
tion for a speech, but they all try to
tell a story or two when they are talk
ing, and they make a mess of It. There
are some excellent precedents for
story-telling in our history. Lincoln
was somewhat of an anecdotlst, anS
there have been a few others. Still,
the dull and deadly statesman doeB
not see It In that light. "Look at Sun
set Cox,” they say. “He was a man of
great parts, but he was a humorist,
and-see what became of him.” Well,
what did become of him? He died and
there Is a statue of him In New York,
erected by the letter-carriers for his
successful efforts in getting them
something like the wages they should
have. "Beware erf the fate of John
Allen!" shout the stodgy ones. Sad
fate, John Allen’s! Served many
years In the house, had more friends
than any other man there, had more
fun than any other, had .a place wait
ing for him as soon as he quit, and Is
now living on hls cotton 'plantation In
Tupelo, and still having fun.
There are no statues to the stodgy
statesmen In New York or anywhere
else, so far as Is known. They come
with corrugated brows, last a few ses
sions, go home and stand around sol
emnly until they die. They cannot
afford to joke. Oh, no, it would ruin
their careers, and that is the greatest
joke of all the jokes there are!
Notwithstanding this weight of opin
ion, this heavy verdict against humor,
congress always has a momber who
defiles the superstition. The humorist
of the present house Is J. Adam Bede,
of Minnesota. Bede Is not only n
pretty fair funnj'-man, but a beneficent
Creator mapped’ him out physically
for the part. He is a small man, with
a wrinkled-apple sort of face. He looks
like an anecdote. The fun bubbles out
of him naturally. It Is mostly of the
true American style. He Is lavish with
exaggerated similes. His metaphors
are grotesque. He makes some excel
lent epigrams and, with It all, he secs
the.bright side of everything and talks
about It. The sun is alwayB shining
for Bede.
He Is an Ohio product. After he
finished school he worked In many
states ns a reporter. He finally land
ed In Duluth, and has had various
newspapers there. He was a Republi
can In hls early days, but, being versa
tile, he went to the Democratic party
In the first Cleveland campaign. This
transference of political fealty got him
a United States marshalshlp from
President Cleveland, and he hung on
to the Democratic party until the
money Issue arose.- Then he shifted
back to the Republican party and, as
he says in hls biography In the Con
gressional Directory, "decided to come
to congress as a Republican.” They
twitted Bede about that when he was
making hls first Important speech In
the house.
"Haven’t you been ft Democrat?”
John Sharp Williams asked him.
"I have,” Bede responded promptly.
“I wnnt tq say finally that I voted the
Democratic ticket a few times, and I
know how hard it is. My first and my
Inst vote were Republican, but, In the
mean time, I voted the Democratic
ticket—and It Is necessarily the mean
time when you do a thing like that”
He is ns shrewd hs he Is funny.
Mark Hanna heard him speak and sent
for him to come to Ohio when Her
rick was making hls first campaign for
governor. Bede spent six weeks In
nnd about Cleveland, making several
speeches every day nnd getting great
crowds. When he had finished, Hanna
asked Bede what he owed him, think
ing to pay him liberally for hls time.
“Oh,” said Bede, “I will call it square
If you will pay my expenses and see
that I am put on the rivers and har
bors committee when I go to con
gress.”
Hanna promised and kept hls word,
tend Bede Is on that committee now.
He Is active In rivers and harbors
work, for Duluth needs a lot of that
sort of money. An expert was before
the committee a short time ago and
was talking theories.
“Here, here!” broke In Bede. “There
are sixteen lawyers on* this committee
nnd two gentlemen, Lortmer and my
self. Now you have given these law
yers all the theories they can digest,
please contribute a fact or two to the
other two members.”
Bede made hls first hit in congress
when, In January, 1904, he spoke for
the first time at length. He was advis
ing the- Democrats to join with the Re
publicans and nominate Roosevelt
Turning to the minority, he said:
“You Democrats cannot elect any
thing. The election this year will he
nothing but a supplemental census.”
They laughed so much at that that
the austere Hemenway, who was In
charge of the floor, gave Bede all the

time he desired, and Bede used it to
show the country that he was amply
able to succeed John Allen as the
house humorist.
Bede’s humor isn’t rdfined. It. is
prnlrle humor and smells of the soil.
He Jokes about the common things of
life and would pain a literary person
who demandB polish with hls jokes.
He was talking one day about the di
versified . agricultural Industries of
Minnesota. He told about the. farmers
turning from exclusive wheat-growing
to dairy and similar pursuits:
“I have gone Into a little place In
the backwoods where they kept two of
three cows and set the milk on a shelf-
in the living-room, where they dis
cussed Democratic politics and chewed
tobacco and did a lot of things. When
they brought their butter to market
you could taste every member of the
family.” ,
That Is Artemus-Wardsy enough to
suit the most strenuous dethand for
"native” humor. That Is Bede’s kind.
He can string paragraphs, like that to
gether for hours at a time, and every
time he gets up In the house he has a
crowd to hear him, although most of
the statesmen deprecate humor and
say it Is -the ruination of a career, and,
by the same token, empty the house,
instead of filling it, when they talk.
Bede took hls six children up to the
White House one day. "What have
you here?” the President asked.
"My string of Bedes,” the Minnesota
man replied.
Not very intellectual, was It? No,
nor Is any of Bede’s humor, hut every
body laughed at it, and, when you
come to think of it, that Is what humor
Is for.

paid to superiority is imitation. The
many imitations of DeWitt’s Witch

public prove it the best. Ask for

No Train Ride for Her.
From the Philadelphia Press. -
Wilkesbarre, Pa., June 17.—Seventy-
year-old Mrs. Charles Skinner, of Jack-
son, Columbia county, took her first
ride on a railroad train yesterday af
ternoon and was so frightened that
the train had to be stopped and she
was allowed to get off and walk.
She was taken from the farm, where
she has lived all her life, to Benton
Station, nnd with her son boarded a
train for Danville after much persua
sion.
No sooner did the train begin to
move, however, than she started to
scream, and as the rumble of the
wheels and the motion of the train in
creased and she saw the landscape
sliding past, she became so frantic
that her son and the passengers feared
she would die of fright
The conductor stopped the train,
and she and her son alighted half a
mile from the station.
